1. Music MagazineLooking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

2. Technological skillsI haven’t really gained any technological skills from point Prelim to final product, as many programs I used I already had a sound knowledge in.

3. Media industry knowledgeI’ve learned a lot of information about the magazine industry, that has helped me create a sound magazine concept. Without this knowledge I don’t think my magazine would be it the standard it at.
